    Vegetarian Survivors

    You know that's one of the biggest misconceptions about vegetarianism. Also, saying "and that's a fact" doesn't make what you say a fact. If you find some cold, hard proof then I'll change my stance. http://www.todaysdietitian.com/newarchives/082510p20.shtml http://www.acefitness.org/acefit/healthy-living-article/60/86/are-vegetarian-diets-safe/ Note: I'm not a vegetarian, but I will defend them when non-vegetarians think they are superior because they get all the mysterious "specific molecules"
  5. Today I had my first real experience with the long range scope. The first zombie practice target was 300m away (estimated). Hit him first time. The second was 1000m away (estimated with the map). Hit him first try. Then my first human targets. Hit the first guy on my first shot. Still going well. The second guy took about 10 shots until I hit him, he probably didn't die. The third didn't get hit. He then lagged in to us (friend and I) a few minutes later, we both died, I couldn't see him due to lag (he was just running in one direction). It seems like it's literally hit or miss, the de-syncing makes it impossible to shoot properly regularly. The really really really stupid swaying of the scope (totally annoying, it's not done well at all), and not being able to see where the bullets land make it really hard to snipe.

    Sensitivity Broken for Anyone Else?

    Yes I hope they implement the previous system where there was no real control when looking or aiming, where the speed of turning seemed to be based on some random number generator, and where turning your mouse faster meant you spin around slower. I hate it at the moment where it works and the only things they need to tweak are sensitivity and spin movement in prone.

    New Spawn Locations

    Meeting bandits is a wonderful experience. It's the KoS kiddies we want to avoid.

    Please fix night time on experimental

    Today we went to an apartment block in Berezino and set up a gas lamp on the roof. We had many people come join our party (one of them got a bit out of hand and had to be shot sadly; another thought he was infected with the virus and jumped off the roof). It was fantastic. Sadly the servers reset before morning.
  9. Friend and I just got shot through the walls in an apartment block in Berezino. Not fun.

    Why KoS is the way to go in certain cases

    I would have tied him up or something :)

    Why KoS is the way to go in certain cases

    Yes, if you want to be a selfish prat and take all the loot then KoS is the way to go.
  12. I ran in to a guy who shot me in the leg with a crossbow. I shouted some hilarious non-offensive abuse at him. He stood in front of me, shooting more bolts in to the ground. I asked how he had so many bolts. He then proceeded to drop several packs of 256 bolts on the floor. Another guy ran past and he ran after him. I begged for a stick. I crawled around for 5 minutes or so (it was night time) and he came back with a stick and a magnum filled with 256 rounds. I took them, realised I had no rags, went in to crouch mode, fired a few rounds hoping someone would come and save me (there were many, many people running around) and then I died from blood loss.
  13. Crossbow bolts are much heavier than m4 rounds. Armies today do not use crossbows because they are less accurate (the crossbow flies slower), much much much harder to reload, much harder to carry around ammunition, have decreased range, more cumbersome, less reliable etc.
  14. A new slider is needed yes, as lowest sensitivity it's still too much for me. But the new system works. The fact that you can prone and spin around is not a result of the 1:1 mechanic, that movement is independent and they can tweak it if they need to.

    New Experimental?

    How do you throw things if you have reassigned all your controls? I can't find the throw option in the controls.
